Mount the Switch

ATTENTION: To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable.
The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety:
• This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
• When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.
• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.
To mount the switch, follow these steps.
1. Position the rear panel of the switch against the wall or a panel in the desired location.
2. Place a number-10 screw that you provide through each mounting ear, and screw them into the wall.

Ground the Switch

ATTENTION: To make sure that the equipment is reliably connected to earth ground, follow the grounding procedure instructions and use a suitable ring
terminal lug, such as Thomas & Bett part number 10RCR or equivalent.

Use at least 4 mm (12 AWG) wire to connect to the external grounding screw.
The ground lug is not supplied with the switch. You can use one of these options:
• Single ring terminal
• Two single ring terminals
To ground the switch to earth ground, follow these steps. Be sure to follow any grounding requirements at your site.
1. Use a Phillips screwdriver or a ratcheting torque screwdriver with a Phillips head to remove the ground screw from the front panel of the
switch.
Store the ground screw for later use.
2. Use the guidelines from the manufacturer to determine the wire length to be stripped.
3. Insert the ground wire into the ring terminal lug and use a crimping tool to crimp the terminal to the wire.
If you are using two ring terminals, repeat this action for the second ring terminal.
4. Slide the ground screw through the terminal.
